Author Visit – Alan Bissett

1 June 2014

We welcomed Alan Bissett to school on Thursday 26 June, when he spoke to Higher pupils about his books, as well as helping them to develop their writing skills. Alan is a Glenfiddich Spirit of Scotland Writer of the Year and his novels are narrated in a mixture of colloquial Scots, English and pop-culture references, which are often read and en- joyed by teenagers. Pupils were able to buy copies of his books, which Alan signed on Thursday in the library.
